Greg's Latest Responses : Ask Greg The latest rambles and responses to questions asked by fans of Greg Weisman, co-creator of the Disney animated television show Gargoyles. http://s8.org/gargoyles/askgreg/ Question from Emily <p><strong>Emily asks:</strong></p> <p> 1. How long has been Barbara waiting for Dick to &acirc;&#128;&#156; be ready for her &acirc;&#128;&#157; ?<br> 2. Did she dated any other guy while she was waiting for Dick ?<br> 3. If she did, was she serious with those guys or would she have dumped them as soon as dick came to her ?<br> 4. When and how did he fall in love with her ?<br> I mean in seasons 1 and 2, he really didn&acirc;&#128;&#153;t seem to have any sort of feelings to her, and then suddenly they were together and living in the same appartement in season 3. It seems a bit forced tbh. </p> <p><strong>Greg responds:</strong></p> <p> 1. Since their early days at Gotham Academy, depicted in Season One and in our companion comics. </p> <p> 2. Sure. Including Jason Bard, as established in Season Four. </p> <p> 3. I don't want to over-simplify, but in fact, she did dump Jason for Dick, as established in Season Four. </p> <p> 4. I think he's had a thing for her, at least a little, since they played Seven Minutes in Heaven on his 14th birthday (also shown in the comics). </p> <p> It's only forced because (a) you aren't, frankly, paying a lot of attention to details, especially but not exclusively from the comics, as indicated by your questions above and (b) time passes where you don't get to see them. That's part of the conceit of the show. Life goes on. You don't get to see all of it. But when years have passed, you have to assume that stuff happened that you missed. You know, like Barbara being paralyzed, for example. </p> <p><em>Response recorded on November 10, 2025</em></p> http://www.s8.org/gargoyles/askgreg/search.php?qid=26610 Question from Suzie <p><strong>Suzie asks:</strong></p> <p> Has anyone ever been kicked off the Team before? (aside from Arsenal) </p> <p><strong>Greg responds:</strong></p> <p> Kicked off? No, I don't think so. Even Arsenal wasn't kicked off. He was benched, and then he quit. Lieutenant Marvel and Sergeant Marvel removed themselves from the Team, and others resigned for one reason or another. But none were booted. </p> <p><em>Response recorded on November 07, 2025</em></p> http://www.s8.org/gargoyles/askgreg/search.php?qid=26605 Question from Suzie <p><strong>Suzie asks:</strong></p> <p> When exactly did M'gann and Conner start using telepathy as their main way of talking to each other? By season 3, it&acirc;&#128;&#153;s become their main source of communication, but when did that start happening exactly? Obviously after they got back together, but why did they start doing it? Or had they started talking more through telepathy prior to their break up? </p> <p><strong>Greg responds:</strong></p> <p> I think they started in Season One, actually, when they were hiding their relationship from the rest of the Team. And it gradually increased over time. I don't think there was a MOMENT when it began. </p> <p><em>Response recorded on November 06, 2025</em></p> http://www.s8.org/gargoyles/askgreg/search.php?qid=26604 Question from Anonymous <p><strong>Anonymous asks:</strong></p> <p> Dickbabs seems forced and it&acirc;&#128;&#153;s so boring, you should&acirc;&#128;&#153;ve had kept him with Zee. </p> <p> #BringbackChalant </p> <p><strong>Greg responds:</strong></p> <p> I don't think it's forced or boring. But your mileage may vary. </p> <p> (And no spoilers for the future, but I will say that literally nothing about your post makes me want to change course. If anything, it makes me want to do the opposite of what you're requesting.) </p> <p> #HumanNatureIGuess </p> <p><em>Response recorded on November 05, 2025</em></p> http://www.s8.org/gargoyles/askgreg/search.php?qid=26603 Question from Family <p><strong>Family asks:</strong></p> <p> Was the Brain still human when he joined the Light? </p> <p><strong>Greg responds:</strong></p> <p> No. </p> <p><em>Response recorded on November 04, 2025</em></p> http://www.s8.org/gargoyles/askgreg/search.php?qid=26601 Question from Michael Broder <p><strong>Michael Broder asks:</strong></p> <p> When did Robin, Livewire, Stargirl, Looker, and Windfall join the Outsiders? </p> <p><strong>Greg responds:</strong></p> <p> Robin/Tim Drake joined the Outsiders sometime between September and November of Team Year Nine. The other four joined in December of Team Year Nine. </p> <p><em>Response recorded on November 03, 2025</em></p> http://www.s8.org/gargoyles/askgreg/search.php?qid=26599 Question from Family <p><strong>Family asks:</strong></p> <p> What do you think the best Young Justice term is: crash, mode, noted, or whelmed? </p> <p><strong>Greg responds:</strong></p> <p> I don't think it's a competition. </p> <p><em>Response recorded on October 31, 2025</em></p> http://www.s8.org/gargoyles/askgreg/search.php?qid=26596 Question from Anonymous <p><strong>Anonymous asks:</strong></p> <p> You've revealed here that Batwoman, Elongated Man, Fire, and Magog all debuted as heroes in Team Year Six. Would you be willing to reveal the order within that year that they debuted? </p> <p><strong>Greg responds:</strong></p> <p> Nope. That would give away designations. And we try to reveal those within the show (or comic) organically. </p> <p><em>Response recorded on October 30, 2025</em></p> http://www.s8.org/gargoyles/askgreg/search.php?qid=26595 Question from Suzie <p><strong>Suzie asks:</strong></p> <p> When exactly did Conner and M'gann find out the Team knew about their relationship? We know that one by one everyone gradually found out throughout the first season, but when did they realize everybody knew? Did someone catch them in a moment or did someone slip and make a comment about their romance in front of them? Or were they simply oblivious and felt they were ready to confess their relationship only to find out everybody already knew? Also what day and month exactly did they officially reveal their relationship? We know that by Image they were no longer keeping it a secret so obviously before that. </p> <p><strong>Greg responds:</strong></p> <p> I'm afraid I can't remember if we ever solidified that. Once Wally found out, it became kinda moot, I suppose. So I guess, I'll leave the details of their awareness over when and how they realized that everyone knew to your imagination. </p> <p><em>Response recorded on October 28, 2025</em></p> http://www.s8.org/gargoyles/askgreg/search.php?qid=26594 Question from Hayden Philyaw <p><strong>Hayden Philyaw asks:</strong></p> <p> In the Episode &acirc;&#128;&#156;Involuntary&acirc;&#128;&#157; during Prince J&acirc;&#128;&#153;emm&acirc;&#128;&#153;s birthday celebration, I saw a type of Martian Bird! I have three questions about it!<br> 1) do you have a name for it?<br> 2) if so would it&acirc;&#128;&#153;s name start with Ma&acirc;&#128;&#153;ar? (since many animals on Mars start with Ma&acirc;&#128;&#153;ar, like Ma&acirc;&#128;&#153;arphin Beast and Ma&acirc;&#128;&#153;arzuu Beast)<br> 3) Would Gar shapeshift into that? </p> <p><strong>Greg responds:</strong></p> <p> 1. We just called them Martian Birds. Not too original. </p> <p> 2. Because Ask Greg has trouble with certain special characters, it's hard to see what exactly you're asking in this question, but, yes, it would likely follow the same type of format. </p> <p> 3. Didn't he? Can't remember. But, yes, if he felt like it or needed to. </p> <p><em>Response recorded on October 27, 2025</em></p> http://www.s8.org/gargoyles/askgreg/search.php?qid=26593 Question from Suzie <p><strong>Suzie asks:</strong></p> <p> The song that M'gann sang in the Torch song comic about her expressing her sorrow and regret as well as her love for Conner. Do you ever wish or plan to actually make an official soundtrack of that song. I would love to actually hear it play. </p> <p><strong>Greg responds:</strong></p> <p> There are no plans to make a soundtrack to include that, unfortunately. But you CAN hear it here: </p> <p> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=opxWHewfkiA </p> <p><em>Response recorded on October 23, 2025</em></p> http://www.s8.org/gargoyles/askgreg/search.php?qid=26591
